Aphareus, Leucippus, Tyndareus and Icarius, sons of Perieres by Gorgophone;
Tyndareus, Icarius, Aphareus, Leucippus, sons of Perieres by Gorgophone; Lynceus, Idas, Pisus, sons of Aphareus by Arene, daughter of Oebalus; Some say Idas is the son of Poseidon;
Some say that Aphareus and Leucippus were the sons of Perieres the son of Aeolus, and that Cynortes begat [another] Perieres, and that [this] Perieres begat Oebalus, and Oebalus begat Tyndareus, Hippocoon and Icarius by a Naiad nymph Batia;
Aphareus 1 married Arene, daughter of Oebalus 1 and Gorgophone 2 (the first woman to marry a second time), and after Arene a city was named.
Aphareus 1 received in his house the exiled Neleus, who had been expelled from Iolcus by his twin brother King Pelias 1, the same man who sent Jason and the ARGONAUTS to Colchis.
With the death of these two brothers, the house of Aphareus 1 died out and the throne passed to the house that had its residence at Pylos, that is, to Neleus and his sons.
